The Reformed Episcopal Church
The Reformed Episcopal Church is rooted in the authoritative Word of God and prioritizes biblical worship, evangelism, and discipleship. Dedicated to proclaiming salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, the Church sees evangelism as primary for the growth of the church. It emphasizes corporate faith through a visible communion and upholds the historic creeds, sacraments, and liturgy of apostolic Christianity. Guided by the Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion and episcopal governance, the Reformed Episcopal Church faithfully continues the mission of the Gospel to a world in need of Christ’s saving grace.

With leaders like Bishop Ray Sutton and the late Bishop Royal Grote, the Diocese has expanded its reach, supporting parishes, forming new dioceses, and fostering theological education through Cranmer Theological House. Grounded in a missionary spirit, the DMA continues to equip churches and believers with tools for ministry and to advance the Gospel through initiatives like REC100, dedicated to church planting and revitalization.
